Calloused Grace

May 12, 2008

I do not know about you. But the depth of a believer’s relationship of God can be so clearly seen in simple day to day actions.

How many times have you sat down with Christians over meals and heard the most insincere prayers prayed called “GRACE”.

Maybe its the way the church has indoctrinated christians to say grace, maybe its just us getting too calloused with the certainty of God’s provision that we have taken things for granted.

When I was younger, I had fallen into that vicious trap and go “rattling” my pre-meal prayers without even meaning a single word.

I remembered a time which God stopped me in my “rattling” and rebuked me gently. He said “Do you really mean what you just prayed?”

I sat there on the table and just wept.

Lets remember to keep our hearts tender towards God and examine the small things we do in our Christian walk. Sometimes these gives us a good indicator of where we are heading.

    Hello, I drop by quite regularly. I was kinda shocked when I read this because God rebuked me about the way I said grace a couple of days ago. Thanks for sharing.
